The murder case of Noor Muqaddam was heard in the District Sessions Court of Islamabad, Pakistan’s federal capital.
Zahir Jaffer, the prime suspect in the murder of Noor Muqaddam, was brought before the court. The hearing was presided over by Additional Sessions Judge Ata Rabbani. The court enquired about the plaintiff’s lawyer’s whereabouts. Babar Hayat Samoor, the lawyer, said that Shah Khawar is unavailable and that the hearings should proceed without him. The main accused, Zahir Jaffer, began speaking during the hearing. “Let Ata Rabbani Sahib get consent in my case, Ata Rabbani, are you listening?” Jaffar said, prompting the court to order the accused to leave the room.
